It is with deep regret we

The parade wended its way

there to the fire "hall where St.
Nick greeted the children of the
community and with his helpers
distributed treats...
The parade was escorted by a

That's what the Brussels and
area flood plain committee thinks,
after hearing -the testimony of
MVCA resources manager Ian
Deslaurier at the OMB hearing
into the Brussels sewer project
last week.
Flood plain committee
chairman Charles Thomas of Grey
Township said it appears from
Mr. Deslaurier's "sworn
testimony" that MVCA is- in
favour, of the sewer system
proposed by the village's
engineer. That plan puts sewers
on what MVCA wants to call a
flood plain i ' Mr. Thomas said.
The sewer plan would also have
the sewage pumping system
located in the proposed flood
plain. Sewers will be connected
to all buildable lots, according to
testimony at the hearing, Mr. Th
omas said, and he couldn't
imagine MI/CA seeing tax money
spent improving lots that couldn't
be developed because they were
on' a flood, plain.
Since the sewer system has not
been approved by the OMB, Mr.
Thomas said he imagined that
anyone who was denied
severance or a building permit
because of the flood plain
regulations would have the right
to appeal to the OMB.-
Mr. Thomas said a letter asking
for clarification on what appears
to be a n ew policy on flood plain
mapping has been sent by his,
group to the Conservation
Authority. Copies have been •sent
